Failed to find or load the registered .Net Framework - Arrrg

I have the same old issue "Error 6 Failed to find or load the registered .Net Framework Data Provider. C:\Projects\Etrm\Main\Source\Curves\Services.Zema\ZemaEDM.edmx"

The application works fine. Deploys to our dev/qa/uat/prod environments. The licenses are setup correctly. The providers are registered in the GAC and the machine.config, but yet I still get this error. Ironically the solutions says the build succeeded.

Any ideas?

Could you please check that the version of the assemblies your application is using corresponds to the version in the provider registration?

Machine config has -

Application is using the following DLL' found post the installation of the purchased Profession version of dotConnect for Oracle:
Devart.Data Version=5.0.105.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=09af7300eec23701
Devart.Data.Oracle, Version=5.70.152.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=09af7300eec23701

The registration info you have provided seems to be correct.
This exception usually occurs when the machine.config or the web.config is corrupt.
To find out what kind of a problem you are experiencing, try to execute the following code:

Code: Select all

Devart.Data.Oracle.OracleProviderFactory f = System.Data.Common.DbProviderFactories.GetFactory("Devart.Data.Oracle") as Devart.Data.Oracle.OracleProviderFactory;

Please go to Debug->Exceptions... and check the CLR Exceptions check box before, and don't forget to disable the Enable Just My Code check box (Tools->Options->Debugging).

Chaps,

This code runs with no issues. The value of f is populated with an instance of the provider. Any more ideas?

Everything should be OK in this case. We will perform some investigations, I will contact you in case we need some more information.

Could you please specify environment where do you get this error - in the development machine or in the deployment one?
Does the given code work correctly in the deployment machine?
